Default Custom Switch Locations

I was wondering what everyones different ideas have been for mounting switches for aux lights, etc. I am really interested in the Rugged Ridge A-Pillar pod that is coming out soon but in the meantime I'm just looking for some ideas.

Where did you mount your switches?

I'm talking about the app. Great for browsing/posting. Horrible for searching.

Used the little round ones that you see alot of. Got them at radio shack. Mounted under the center dash ledge above the AC knobs (I don't have power windows to obstruct - half doors). They are invisible unless you lay in the floor and look up. They are easy to switch from driver or passenger side if you know they are there. I wanted something less visible since they are after market. Two moutned easily and three could fit.

Good idea but that is where I mounted my iPod.

How'd you mount the IPOD under the ledge? I am not talking about the flat space on the front of the console area...under that area is a ledge over the AC controlers. I put my switches in that horizontal ledge facing down.

Here's mine, I also have the daystar panel mounted in front of the shifter for my lockers and air compressor (not yet installed in the picture below), but put my heated seats in the stock panel (if you have blanks available)
